Ermiyaas 5
1 “Daandiiwwan Yerusaalem irra olii gadi deddeebiʼaa; asii fi achi ilaalaatii qalbeeffadhaa; oobdiiwwan ishee sakattaʼaa. Isin yoo nama waan qajeelaa hojjetu, kan dhugaa barbaadu tokko illee argattan ani magaalaa kanaaf dhiifama nan godha.
Hambani liye le lale ezitaladeni zeJerusalema, libone khathesi, lazi, lidinge ezindaweni zayo ezingamagceke, uba lingathola umuntu, uba ekhona owenza isahlulelo, odinga iqiniso; khona ngizayithethelela.
2 Isaan utuma ‘Dhugaa Waaqayyo jiraataa’ jedhanuu amma iyyuu sobaan kakatu.”
Loba-ke besithi: Kuphila kukaJehova; kanti bafunga amanga.
3 Yaa Waaqayyo, iji kee dhugaa hin barbaaduu? Ati isaan dhoofte; garuu isaan hin dhukkubne; ati isaan caccabsite; isaan garuu sirreeffamuu didan. Isaan dhagaa caalaa mataa jabaatanii qalbii jijjiirrachuu didan.
Nkosi, amehlo akho kawakho eqinisweni yini? Ubatshayile, kodwa kabezwanga buhlungu; ubaqothule, kodwa bala ukwemukela ukulaywa. Benzile ubuso babo bube lukhuni kuledwala, bala ukuphenduka.
4 Anis akkana jedheen yaade; “Jarri kunneen hiyyeeyyii dha; isaan gowwoota; isaan karaa Waaqayyoo, seera Waaqa isaanii hin beekaniitii.
Mina ngasengisithi: Qiniso, laba ngabayanga, bayizithutha; ngoba kabayazi indlela yeNkosi, isahlulelo sikaNkulunkulu wabo.
5 Kanaafuu ani hangafoota bira dhaqee isaanitti nan dubbadha; dhugumaan isaan karaa Waaqayyoo, seera Waaqa isaanis ni beeku.” Isaanis akkasuma waanjoo of irraa caccabsanii hidhaas of irraa kukkutaniiru.
Mina ngizakuya kwabakhulu, ngikhulume labo, ngoba bona bayayazi indlela yeNkosi, isahlulelo sikaNkulunkulu wabo; kodwa labo kanyekanye balephulile ijogwe, baqamula izibopho.
6 Kanaafuu leenci bosonaa baʼee isaan nyaata; yeeyyiin gammoojjiis dhufee isaan balleessa; qeerransi warra gad baʼan ciccirachuuf magaalaawwan isaanii biratti riphee eeggata; fincilli isaanii akka malee guddate; duubatti deebiʼuun isaaniis baayʼateeraatii.
Ngakho-ke isilwane esiphuma ehlathini sizababulala, impisi yezinkangala ibachithe, ingwe ilinde imelene lemizi yabo; wonke ophuma kiyo uzadatshudatshulwa; ngoba iziphambeko zabo zinengi, ukuhlehlela nyovane kwabo kwandile.
7 “Ani akkamiinan dhiifama isiniif gochuu dandaʼa? Ijoolleen kee na dhiisanii waaqota waaqota hin taʼiniin kakataniiru. Ani waan isaaniif barbaachisu hunda kenneefiin ture; isaan garuu ni ejjan; gara manneen sagaagaltuuwwaniitis gugatan.
Ngingakuthethelela njani ngalokhu? Abantwana bakho bangidelile, bafunga ngabangeyisibo onkulunkulu. Sengibasuthisile, basebefeba, babuthana ngamaxuku endlini yezifebe.
8 Isaan korommii fardeenii kanneen akka gaariitti sooramanii dha; tokkoon tokkoon isaanii niitii namaatti himimsu.
Babenjengamabhiza asuthayo ekuseni, bakhonya, omunye lomunye kumfazi kamakhelwane wakhe.
9 Ani waan kanaaf isaan hin adabuu ree?” jedha Waaqayyo. “Ani mataan koo saba akka saba kanaa haaloo hin baʼuu?
Kangiyikujezisa yini ngenxa yalezizinto? itsho iNkosi; kumbe umphefumulo wami kawuyikuphindisela yini esizweni esinjengalesi?
10 “Dallaa dhagaa isheetti ol baʼaatii balleessaa; garuu guutumaan guutuutti miti. Dameewwan ishee irraa ciraa; sabni kun saba Waaqayyoo miti.
Yenyukelani emidulwini yayo, lichithe, kodwa lingenzi isiphetho esipheleleyo; susani ingatsha zayo, ngoba kazisizo zeNkosi.
11 Manni Israaʼelii fi manni Yihuudaa, guutumaan guutuutti anaaf hin amanamne” jedha Waaqayyo.
Ngoba indlu kaIsrayeli lendlu kaJuda zenze ngenkohliso enkulu zimelene lami, itsho iNkosi.
12 Isaan waaʼee Waaqayyoo soba dubbatan; akkanas jedhan; “Inni homaa hin godhu! Miidhaan tokko iyyuu nutti hin dhufu; goraadee yookaan beela hin arginu.
Bayiphikile iNkosi, bathi: Kayisiyo; njalo ububi kabuyikusehlela, futhi kasiyikubona inkemba loba indlala.
13 Raajonni bubbee malee homaa miti; dubbiin isaan keessa hin jiru; wanni isaan dubbatan isaanumatti haa deebiʼu.”
Labaprofethi bazakuba ngumoya, lelizwi kalikho kubo; kuzakwenziwa njalo kibo!
14 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha: “Sabni kun waan dubbii kana dubbateef, ani dubbii koo afaan kee keessatti ibidda, saba kana immoo qoraan ibiddi gubu nan godha.
Ngalokho itsho njalo iNkosi uNkulunkulu wamabandla: Ngoba likhuluma lelilizwi, khangela, ngizakwenza amazwi ami emlonyeni wakho abe ngumlilo, lalababantu babe zinkuni, njalo uzabaqothula.
15 Yaa mana Israaʼel,” jedha Waaqayyo; “Ani saba duriitii fi jabaa, saba ati afaan isaa hin beekne, kan ati dubbii isaa illee hin hubanne tokko biyya fagoodhaa sitti nan fida.
Khangelani, ngizaletha phezu kwenu isizwe esivela khatshana, ndlu kaIsrayeli, itsho iNkosi; yisizwe esilamandla, yisizwe esidala, isizwe ongalwaziyo ulimi lwaso, longayikuzwa esikukhulumayo.
16 Manʼeen xiyya isaanii akkuma awwaala banamaa ti; hundi isaaniis loltoota jajjaboo dha.
Isamba saso semitshoko sinjengengcwaba elivulekileyo; bonke bangamaqhawe.
17 Isaan midhaan keetii fi buddeena kee ni nyaatu; ilmaan keetii fi intallan kee ni ajjeesu; bushaayee fi loon kee ni nyaatu; wayinii keetii fi mukkeen harbuu keetii ni nyaatu. Magaalaawwan dallaa jabaa qaban kanneen ati amanatte sana goraadeedhaan barbadeessu.
Njalo sizakudla isivuno sakho lokudla kwakho; sizakudla amadodana akho lamadodakazi akho; sizakudla izimvu zakho lenkomo zakho; sizakudla ivini lakho lomkhiwa wakho; lemizi yakho ebiyelweyo othembela kiyo, sizayithelela ubuyanga ngenkemba.
18 “Taʼus ani bara sana keessa iyyuu guutumaan guutuutti isin hin balleessu” jedha Waaqayyo.
Kodwa langalezonsuku, itsho iNkosi, kangiyikwenza isiphetho esipheleleyo kini.
19 “Yommuu namoonni, ‘Waaqayyo Waaqni keenya maaliif waan kana hunda nutti fide?’ jedhanii gaafatanitti, ati, ‘Isin akkuma na dhiiftanii biyya keessan keessatti waaqota ormaa tajaajiltan sana, ammas biyya kan mataa keessanii hin taʼin keessatti ormoota ni tajaajiltu’ jettee isaanitti himta.
Kuzakuthi-ke lapho lisithi: INkosi uNkulunkulu wethu yenzeleni zonke lezizinto kithi? Khona uzakutsho kubo uthi: Njengoba lingidelile, lakhonza onkulunkulu bemzini elizweni lakini, ngokunjalo lizakhonza abezizwe elizweni elingeyisilo lenu.
20 “Waan kana mana Yaaqoobitti himaa; Yihuudaa keessattis labsaa:
Memezelani lokhu endlini kaJakobe, likuzwakalise koJuda, lisithi:
21 Isin uummanni gowwaan hubannaa hin qabne, warri utuu ija qabdanuu hin argine kanneen utuu gurra qabdanuu hin dhageenye waan kana dhagaʼa.
Zwanini-ke lokhu, lina bantu abayizithutha labangelangqondo, elilamehlo, kodwa lingaboni, elilendlebe, kodwa lingezwa.
22 Isin na hin sodaattanii?” jedha Waaqayyo. “Fuula koo duratti hin hollattanii? Ani galaanaaf cirracha daarii dallaa bara baraa kan inni qaxxaamuruu hin dandeenye godhee tolcheera. Dhaʼaan galaanaa yoo itti buʼe iyyuu isa diiguu hin dandaʼu; galaanichi yoo huurse iyyuu, isa cabsee darbuu hin dandaʼu.
Kalingesabi yini? itsho iNkosi; kaliyikuthuthumela phambi kwami yini, engabeka itshebetshebe laba ngumngcele wolwandle ngesimiso saphakade olungeledlule? Lanxa amagagasi alo etshayana kube kanti angenqobe; lanxa ehlokoma kube kanti kawayikudlula phezu kwawo.
23 Sabni kun garuu mata jabeessaa fi fincilaa dha; innis karaa irraa jalʼatee badeera.
Kodwa lababantu balenhliziyo evukelayo lephikayo; baphambukile, bahamba.
24 Isaan garaa isaaniitti akkana hin jedhan; ‘Kottaa Waaqayyo Waaqa keenya isa bokkaa arfaasaatii fi bokkaa birraa waqtiidhaan kennu, isa torbanoota itti midhaan walitti qabannu yeroo isaaniitti nuu kennu sana haa sodaannu.’
Futhi kabatsho enhliziyweni zabo ukuthi: Ake sesabe iNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu, enika izulu lakuqala lelamuva ngesikhathi salo, esigcinela amaviki amisiweyo esivuno.
25 Balleessaan keessan waan kana isin irraa deebiseera; cubbuun keessan waan gaarii isin dhabsiiseera.
Iziphambeko zenu ziphambule lezizinto, lezono zenu zaligodlela okuhle.
26 “Saba koo gidduu namoota hamoo akka warra nama qabuuf kiyyoo kaaʼaniitti, akkuma nama kiyyoon simbirroo qabuutti riphanii eeggatantu jira.
Ngoba phakathi kwabantu bami kutholakala abakhohlakeleyo; bacatheme njengabathiya inyoni; babeka umgibe ochithayo, babambe abantu.
27 Akkuma manʼeen simbiraan guutamu, manneen isaanii sobaan guutamu; isaanis sooreyyii fi jajjaboo taʼanii,
Njengezongo ligcwele inyoni, zinjalo izindlu zabo zigcwele inkohliso; ngakho-ke sebebakhulu, banothile.
28 gabbatanii bareedaniiru; hamminni isaanii dhuma hin qabu; isaan murtii qajeelaa hin barbaadan. Isaan dhimma ijoollee abbaa hin qabneetiif hin falman; mirga hiyyeeyyiitiifis hin dhaabatan.
Bazimukile, bancwaba, yebo, bedlula imisebenzi yomubi; kabameli udaba, udaba lwezintandane, kube kanti bayaphumelela; lelungelo labaswelayo kabalahluleli.
29 Ani waan kanaaf isaan hin adabuu?” jedha Waaqayyo. “Ani saba akkasii haaloo hin baafadhuu?
Kangiyikubajezisa ngalezizinto yini? kutsho iNkosi. Umphefumulo wami kawuyikuphindisela esizweni esinjengalesi yini?
30 “Wanni suukaneessaan nama rifachiisu tokko biyyattii keessatti taʼeera:
Okwethusayo lokwesabekayo kwenzakele elizweni.
31 Raajonni raajii sobaa dubbatu; luboonni humnuma isaaniitiin biyya bulchu; sabni koos waan akkasii jaallata; isin garuu dhuma irratti maal gochuuf jirtu?
Abaprofethi baprofetha ngamanga, labapristi babusa ngezandla zabo; labantu bami bakuthanda kunjalo; kodwa lizakwenzani ekupheleni kwakho?
